Nice place. But this is not a Italian food. Italy is, first and foremost, a sense of beauty — a sense of proportion, balance. And this is classic American food: more of everything, with no moderation.
My expectations are on me
Ps even Google maps identifying ravioli’s plate photo like a Lasagna

Was looking at reviews and I saw they were VERY mixed. No in between either the experience was TERRIBLE or it was fantastic. So I decided to try it out. I’ll be honest, I know everyone’s experiences could be different but mine was near perfect.
My servers were Kathy and Sophia and they were extremely attentive. My drinks never ran out and they probably checked on me 10 times while I was there.
The bread was hot and definitely from scratch. Wasn’t dried out like others mentioned.
The salad was fantastic and PLENTIFUL. I barely ate any of this I was completely stuffed! The salad may not look like it in the picture but it was probably big enough to feed 4 people maybe 5.
The tomato sauce is sweeter than most. But I feel mixed with the meat it really balanced it out. I was a fan myself.
Everything you see in my photos including a drink (not pictured) came out to $22.
I had an absolutely wonderful experience and I will be returning.

First time here and it’s absolutely gorgeous inside! All food is homemade. Warm homemade bread and whipped butter .. croutons on the salad .. salad dressings. . Yum!!! Ordered the ribs and the lasagna . Ribs cooked to perfection . Lasagna sauce a lot sweeter than I’m used to, still yummy. Service was impeccable. Prices are decent. Will definitely return!
Part 2 : Went Back a different day for dinner. Ordered ravioli with Alfredo sauce instead of their sweet tomato sauce. Absolutely delicious! Hubby ordered ribs again.

Italian food is my favorite and I really enjoyed my meal at Italia Gardens. The tomato sauce was a tad sweeter than I prefer, but the chicken parmigiana was still very good. The salad, bread, and service were also very good too.

Autumn, our waitress, was attentive to our needs, was kind, & efficient! Well done Autumn!
No pictures to show of the food…. Ate most of the food and the rest we made sure we took home in boxes.
Out of the oven baked section on menu, you get the most portion size from the Lasagna. Delicious!!!!!!!
Home made sweet sauce was addicting!
Five Chef’s Kiss from us!

I really want to thank Rowan. He did a great job with my family and I tonight. We showed up 30 minutes earlier than my joining party, and didn’t let us go without. The food was fantastic and very quick!

My daughter was visiting from Texas and she wanted to come here for lunch and get their great pasta and homemade bread. I ordered the meatball sandwich and my daughter got chicken Alfredo. The server was friendly and helpful. The meals took quite a while but the salad and homemade bread kept us busy. We are thankful this 100 year old business is still thriving in the Flint area.

I did not want to provide a review online, however, I did send the below message through their website contact section which said you would receive a response in 24 hours and that was 8 days ago. So now I thought I would put what I sent them: Hi there,
I wanted to share this privately rather than posting it on Google or a local community page, because I don’t want to hurt your small-town image, I just want to offer feedback so some changes and improvements can be made.
My family and I visited tonight. My dad and stepmother were in from Florida, tired and hungry, just wanting a good meal together. We originally wanted to go to the new El Cozumel in Davison, but it was packed, so we decided to finally give Italian Gardens a try after living here three years and never having visited.
When we arrived, it wasn’t busy, but it still took several minutes to be greeted. A nice young woman seated us and brought menus. The salad and bread were just okay, nothing special. My dad ordered the antipasto and chicken soup, but his soup didn’t come out with the bread and salads. We asked for it, and it finally came right before dinner. It was hot, but he said it wasn’t very good, even joked that a quality canned soup would’ve been better.
I got the pizza, which tasted like something from Chuck E. Cheese or a food court, for $14, it was disappointing. My stepmother’s meatball sandwich may have had homemade meatballs, but they were bland, and the sauce tasted canned. My wife’s chicken Alfredo came out lukewarm with barely any chicken. For what they charge, you could go to Lucky’s Steakhouse and get a ribeye dinner with sides that’s way better and actually hot.
The waitress was very kind and did her best, but overall the place felt unorganized. I think the man who said goodbye to us was the owner, but honestly, it seemed like the kitchen was being run by teenagers or very young staff, or they’re simply understaffed.
The entire experience felt like airport or rest stop food. For nearly $100 with tip, that’s unacceptable, especially for a restaurant with multiple locations.
For the money, we could’ve gotten better food at Andiamo or Caio in Fenton. It’s too bad, because we really wanted to love the restaurant. In hindsight, we probably could’ve just waited for a table at El Cozumel and had a better experience. My father mentioned the experience to a local hotel in the area, and they told him we could have told you that about this place, my friend in Lindon said yeah, they are like the Olive Garden of Italian food.

My grandson and I went there today for lunch, and right from the start we were treated like family. We arrived prior to opening and were let right in. We had the best time, our waitress was wonderful, the food was great but it was MARCELLA the bread maker that won our hearts! She seems to love her job and is very good at it. Best of all she showed my grandson Asher how to make a pizza! We love her! Can’t wait to come back to Italia Gardens!

Best Italian Restaurant in Mid Michigan!!! It is themed as a small Italian village. As you enter the dining rooms a wonderful aroma of fresh baked bread and baking pizzas greet you! Our waitress was amazing! The food was tasty and flavorful. The portions were substantial! Their food is a wonderful treat for your palate! I look forward to many visits to Italia Gardens!
